Very concentrated, opaque red-to-black color. Very rich, sweet and unctuous nose with aromas of blackcurrant jam, blueberries, cherry marmalade and some blackberry jam. Sweet and fullbodied in the mouth with sweet, juicy flavors of bilberries, plum soup, peppery spice and strawberries. Quite tannic with modest acidity and somewhat pronounced alcoholic heat. Medium-length finish with sweet flavors of blackcurrant jam, dates, peppery spice and prunes. Nice tannic grip.
An interesting dessert wine expression of Dingač, the hallmark wine of the southern Croatia. Very enjoyable, not unlike a well made Reserve Ruby Port intermingled with that unmistakable Plavac Mali character. Lovely with local cookies and arancini sweets. 40 Kn (5,27€) for a 15 cl glass in the Skaramuča wine bar, Dubrovnik.
